Katie Roche and Stella













In early March 2011, Katie Roche and her daughter Stella agreed to work with me to make new portraits. I wanted to photograph Katie again...this time she was/is still....pregnant. The stark landscape in the backyard of their home in Iowa City became an important part of this portrait. Life is coming...it is nearly spring.... Portraits are always a collaboration for me. It was a brief shoot -- life moves so quickly -- I always feel very lucky I am invited into someone's home to make their portrait. Thank you Katie and Stella. New pictures to be included in my project called "Lost in the Midwest".

High & Lonesome - December 17th, 2010







High & Lonesome Reunion Show at the Mill in Iowa City on December 17th, 2010. I was there and really happy about being there. It was a packed and lively house. Dancing and drinking, plenty of fun - and music by David Zollo and his band made it all happen. Thank you David, Ruairi Fennessy, Darren Matthews, Jimmy Viner, Dustin Conner and Brad Engeldinger.
